20 x 20

PechaKucha Night
aiga.org
Join the Pittsburgh chapters of AIGA and AIA for PechaKucha Night: Vol 11, Thursday, March 29 at 8pm.
PKN is an event for local creatives to meet and network while presenters share their stories, collections, products or work in 6 minutes and 40 seconds of exquisitely matched words and images. Drawing its name from the Japanese term for the sound of conversation ("chit chat"), it rests on a presentation format that is based on a simple idea: 20 images x 20 seconds. It's a format that makes presentations concise, and keeps things moving at a rapid pace.


looking forward to sharing info & goals of our program... c u next thursday!
